I'm working on a faster keccak miner. Have managed 1700MHASH on the 1080ti. Should be able to do 2500 on the 2080ti. (FPGA speeds)

Do you think we will get from CUDA 10 some speed-ups?

A single FPGA card does 17 Gh/s.
Same power consumption.

Oh come on. sp_ was again under some LSD hoping to sell his "miners with FPGA speeds" and here you came and smashed his wet dreams

sp_ Any news about your superduperuber stolen miner? No commits on githab since 14 of september but t-rex, z-enemy and CD are improving their miners. How can they do that?  Without you opensource improvements? It can't be possible!!! Can it?

pure ptx assembly kernels doesn't seem to get a boost in cuda 10.

LOOK UP SQRL MINER--

There is a new miner that utilizes an ACORN FPGA like a co-processor.  The ACORN is an M.2 PCIe device designed to assist the GPU in mining.  Squirrels Research Labs is about to launch this FPGA device along with with a proprietary, free, no-fee miner, "SQRL Miner", and it boosts GPU performance in a number of algorithms.

CBuchner was toying with an Intel co-processor board just prior to retiring from crypto.       --scryptr

That's like trying to beat asics with a gpu. Coin devs need to be more proactive with protecting their coins rather the just letting them get ruined by asics/fpgas. It makes you wonder why developers even use other algos other then sha-256 if they're just going to let them get taken over by fpgas and asics. I guess devs are lazy, I get that, but seriously, it's pretty easy to see GPU territory has been slowly pushed to the side till most of us are stuck in the usual suspects like x16r and ethereum. Even equihash splintered to prevent asic/fpgas and Zcash is still sitting in it without giving a shit.

I've seen the acorn co-processor and it's a pipe dream to help prop up GPUs where they can't compete anymore and it doesn't help. They also funnel you into their locked in solution which is basically the equivalent of having a vice around your balls. FPGAs have been around since time began in crypto, they're much more commercialized now days and developers really need to take a stand against them. Acorn is a FPGA for instance...


Edit: Apparently Accorn has expanded too, they're basically going to be selling full on commercialized FPGAs as well. It's really weird, I don't think they even know what they want to do as part of their lineup will immediately cannibalize the other part of their line up. I assume FPGAs work a lot better at things like x16r then just a coprocessor. Once benchmarks come out they'll end up with like half their products that don't sell.

I understand where they're coming from, but they'll eventually transition to a straight up FPGA producer. It's almost like the coprocessors are there to give GPU miners a dream to cling to so they don't raise a fuss while the other FGPAs mine the shit out of algos, when really GPU miners should be fighting to prevent FPGAs and ASICs showing up on their coins by talking to their favorite coin devs and raising awareness. Developers if they want their mining communities to stick around are going to need to work harder to prevent this stuff.

Have you seen Acorn's warranties? It screams buy at your own risk, cuz we don't believe our product will be around 6 months from now.

what about the cost? fpga is 4x the cost of a 2080 ti if i'm not mistaken, but consumption is equal

costs 4x and is more than 4x faster, same power usage.

There is a bounty for the fastest OpenCl miner here. And there will be a fastest CUDA miner bounty too for open source.
Since you chose to be open source show everyone who is the fastest

Where is the info on the bounty?

Not yet i guess. Zjazz made the first miner 50% faster.

Yes I remember CBuchner talking about it scryptr.   I wonder what he made of it?
Could send the hash to ck's pool too to hit a block.

PSA: FPGAs and ASIC are NOT natural progression. Software evolves, development evolves - If you have a coin that has any other algo then sha-256, YOU should be fighting to keep your community EVEN if it just means forking to something like ProgPOW. At the most basic level other people have made solutions, even if your development team doesn't want to take the time. And if you think mining is all created equal? No, no it's not. ASIC and FPGAs are ruled by the elite few, either those with a lot of money or those with access to those who make custom pieces of firmware to run on those FPGAs. It's not the same as 'plug it in and work' dunder heads that come with GPUs.

A lot of miners are idiots, it's true, but when they mine your coin they talk about it, they gloat about it, they give eachothers handies (even though that means more people will talk about it and ruin their profitability), they drink the koolaid, in general you have a active community. Even if that's not the community YOU want and they may not have enough money to raise the price of your coin, they will talk about your coin in some way, shape, or form. And that's a start. Ethereum would be no where close to what it is today if there wasn't a firm mining community behind it, especially considering the specialty of the Dagger algo.

Can Ethereum fly on it's own now into the PoS sunset? Sure. However, they will lose that epic building block of a community that built up around it. When we live in world where people still have no idea what to do with crypto, losing out on people that want to work with it is a major pitfall. YOU as a developer are responsible for your coins, YOU should be watching out for your community, YOU should try to keep it healthy. ASICs and FPGA are about as healthy as botnets and AWS are on CPU coins... Which is to say, there is one guy that comes by your chat/thread on occasion to make sure someone hasn't released a miner that's remotely competitive with his hardware, then goes back to counting his money.


Protect what you believe in.

X22I: x17 + ghost and a few other algos...In the opensource around 50% of the time is used in the swiftx algo.
 4 times more memory usage. +20% boost is easy. Just copy paste the x17 from my opensource, and add the other kernels.
